My name is Arash Soofiani and I am the +100kg category judo player for San Jose State University. I will graduate in June 2017 with a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Environmental Studies, with a concentration in Energy Policy and Conservation. Born and raised in Venice Beach, I have adopted the San Francisco Bay Area as my new home. I transferred to San Jose State University from West Los Angeles Community College in
2014. I’ve been wrestling, doing judo or sambo, and grappling since I was 11 years old. I started judo at Dynamo Sports Club, a community sports program that helped me grow daily after my wrestling practices. Raised by various LA-based dojos such as Dynamo Sports Club, Tenri Dojo, and Hayastan MMA, I have come to SJSU Judo to become a stronger judoka and person. SJSU Judo’s storied Olympian alumni attracted me to the program; three of them, (Colton Brown, Marti Malloy, Mike Swain) are still active at SJSU Judo as active competitors, invigorating coaches, and wise mentors. I am thankful for being surrounded by hard working teammates as well. With the help of the SJSU Judo program, I’ve been able to win the National Collegiate Championships in 2016 and qualify for this World University Games. Our SJSU judo winning tradition is sure to invade the World University Games and take gold across the board.
In my spare time, I like to spend time in the serenity of the giant redwood and oak woodlands of the Santa Cruz Mountains. Meditation, breathing, and stretching are big parts of my day, intermittently visited even when I’m finishing work for my various gigs and internships. I am also a heavyweight hip hop head, digging through the proverbial crates for legendary emcees like KRS-1, Rakim, and the WuTang Clan. But nothing beats eating and drinking well in the company of good friends. Cheers
